5 A. Purpose and applications The Gnathostomatic System is one of the most complex locomotor organs in the human body, largely due to its three dimensional spatial movements. In the event where a therapeutic, prosthetic or orthognathic treatment is required, a function-oriented therapy is essential. Segments of this kind of therapy, by necessity, have to be performed extraorally, i.e. functional diagnosis, treatment planning, surgical, therapeutic or prosthodontic appliances. A simulation device which can mimic the mandibular movements and can accept the parameters of the patient s condylar and anterior guidance accurately, in addition, will retain the program of the dynamics of the mandible and the condyles, is not only necessary in the dental practice, but also in the dental laboratory. An articulator and associated measuring devices are indispensable tools for recording and transferring existing anatomical conditions or manipulable variables, they form the basis for functionoriented therapy. A defect-free morphological condition between the temporomandibular joint, the neuromuscular system and the dentition, forms the basis for a healthy and well functioning gnathostomatic system. 6 7 FH In order to faithfully reproduce the movements of the mandible on an articulator, anatomical reference points and reference lines have to be identified on the patient, with regard to a system of coordinates. The visual connection between the subnasal point and the Tragus Medialis for instance, forms Camper s Plane of Occlusion (CP). On the other hand, the visual connection between the Porion 6 and the Infra- Orbital Point (IOP) forms the Frankfurt Horizontal Plane (FHP). The co-ordinates of these reference points and planes result in the Horizontal Condylar Inclination (HCI). Other terms in use: Protrusive Path - Mid-Sagittal Horizontal Inclination - Condylar Path Angle. Subnasal point Okklusions plane 7 Hinge axis

6 Shift PROTAR evo. A. Observation of the movements of the mandible in the horizontal plane Protrusion With protrusion, the mandible moves forward. There is ventral and caudal movement of the two condyles. The movement tracks of the maxillary tooth are shown on the mandibular tooth. Mediotrusion and laterotrusion In lateral occlusion, a differentiation is made between laterotrusion on the working side and mediotrusion on the non-working side. The connection between the beginning and end point of the condyle moved inwards on the mediotrusive path forms the Bennett angle with the protrusion trace on the non-working side. Bennett The condyle describes a laterotrusion on the working side. Deviations from the. laterotrusion are defined as shift angle. Bennett

7 A.6 System philosophy The articulator and face bow system from KaVo is designed so that work can be carried out using either the Frankfurt horizontal plane (FH) or Camper s plane (CP). The nasal support provides an average alignment of the face bow with respect to the two planes. The face bow can also be individually aligned to the required reference plane by using the reference pointer. Infra-orbital point Subnasal point In the articulator, the face bow is always inserted in the same position on the lateral reference pins and on the incisal pin (set to zero). The bite fork will, however, vary in its position depending on the patient s anatomy. 6 6 Support of the face bow 7 Incisal pin 7 In the PROTAR articulator, the models are almost parallel (deviations ± 0º) with the Camper s plane 9. Advantage for dental technology: the models mounted in an articulator have their occlusion plane q almost parallel to the Camper s plane 9 and thus also to the work surface. The plaster expansion is uniform. w e r 8 9 q 0 8 Infra-orbital point 0 Subnasal point w Tragus medialis e Porion r Hinge axis

The articulator upper section can only be rotated in the closed position 7 0 Position 9 When the centric locks are in the middle Position, the articulator is freely movable so that the desired articulator movements can be carried out. The spring elements 8 press the condyles against the joint surfaces 0 of the hinge boxes to prevent them from lifting off. 8 In its Position, the articulator can be handled like a non-arcon articulator. This will prevent the upper and lower sections of the articulator from coming apart

16 Position = open In this position, the upper section can be removed. 0 After positioning the articulator upper sections and closing the two centric locks, the articulator is now complete. The centric locks can only be closed when the articulator upper section is firmly located into the condylarball. The left centric lock must always be closed first. R L R = right L = left

17 A. PROTARevo with Splitcast (Factory adjustment) If the articulator is factory-equipped with the KaVo Splitcast, the magnetically-held control plate serves to accept the model. The retention adapter is used for retention of After completing the work, the model is pressed out of the control plate by use of the star-grip screw. Finally, clean the control plate. A. Working with the Mounting Set Mat. No The mounting set enables the production of accurately fitting plaster plates for the KaVo Split- Cast. Practical hints function Snap the mounting disc into the mounting set 6. As a rule, the mounting set does not have to be insulated. Remove the plaster plate after 6 hours, at the latest. After each use, immediately clean the mounting set thoroughly under running water. If necessary, use KaVo Separating Material (Order No. 0.6.). Blow off superfluous separating material. 6 7 Never use plaster solvents to clean the mounting set. Mat.- No. see A. A. PROTARevo without Split-cast 8 9 If the Artikulator is factory-installed equipped without Split-cast, then the mounting plates 9 (0.6.87) are fixed with the help of a tommy screw

18 A.. PROTARevo with magnetic fixing By use of the magnetic fixing , a magnet can be located in the PROTA- Revo in place of the capstan-head screw.together with the PS mounting plates a fast change of model is possible. This method of fixing the model does not allow synchronization.

25 A 6.6 Average value method using the KaVo upper jaw model positioner Mat. No APFnt Method The medium-value model positioner for an edentulous upper jaw model makes articulation possible, if no face bow is available. The edentulous flaps and the lowest points behind the two tubercles serve as reference points. Fixiing screw Adjustment mark if KaVo Split- Cast is not installed. Adjustment mark when KaVo Split- Cast is installed. Reference points

26 A 6.7 Average value method using the KaVo Mounting and Setup Aid for the upper jaw The Mounting-Setup aid Mat. No (without Split- Cast- mounting) Mat. No (with Split- Castmounting) enables medium-value articulation of an edentulous upper jaw model, if no face bow is available. The setup aids are aligned parallel to Camper s Plane. The mesial alignment is achieved by use of the papilla screw. According to the setup method, the papilla screw is withdrawn to the appropriate length, the model with its papilla placed on the screw, and the cradle pushed in so far until this comes to rest at the lowest point behihd the two tubercles. By use of the adjustment screw, the mounting and setup aid is uniquely aligned to the occlusal plane 6 of the respective articulator. 6 By using the clamp.00.97, the mounting and setup aid.00. can also be fixed in the Denar, Hanau and Stratos articulators.

27 A 6.8 Average value method for the lower jaw model using the KaVo Plastering Gauge Mat. No (APF Method) The plastering gauge makes it possible for partial or fully edentulous lower jaw models to be articulated in the PROTAR articulator. If the KaVo articulator is equipped with the Split-Cast, the plastering gauge must be fixed in Position (loosen screw ) If no Split-Cast is mounted, the gauge must be fixed in Position. A 6.8. Mounting of an edentulous lower jaw model Draw a circle around the retro-molar protuberance of the lower jaw model. Mark a centre line and divide into three parts. The occlusal plane runs to the upper marking.

Fix the plastering gauge to the model by using a rubber band e. w 9 e Finally, articulate the lower jaw model in the articulator. 6

29 A 6.9 Articulation of the lower jaw model Turn the articulator upside down. (centric locks remain closed). Fold out the articulator. Set the lower jaw model on the upper jaw model, with no rocking movement. When working without centric registration, the support pin is set at zero. Close the opening in the control plate with a retention adapter Mat. No Then apply plaster of a creamy consistency to the lower jaw model, and to the control plate of the articulator lower section. Using no pressure, now close the articulator. After the plaster has hardened, remove the centric registration and return support pin to the zero position. The upper and lower jaws are now articulated in the correct relationship. 7

30 A 7 Programming the articulator A 7. Adjusting the condylar path inclination with protrusion recording block (for PROTAR, B, 7, 9) Open the two centric locks and place the protrusion recording block between the dentition of the plaster models. This pushes the lower part of the articulator forwards in relation to the top part. The ball joints 6 of the articulator now no longer touch the condyle path. Release the clamps of the hinge boxes and bring the respective hinge boxes into contact with the ball joints 6. Apply clamps of the hinge boxes. 7 A 7. Adjusting the Bennett angle with the left and right laterotrusion recording block (for PROTARevo B, 7, 9) Release clamps and set the max. Bennett angle. Setting the left Bennett angle Place the right laterotrusion recording block between the dentition of teeth of the upper and lower jaws. 6 Turn the left hinge box insert 7 until the ball joint 6 and insert 7 touch and then secure with clamp. Setting the right Bennett angle Place the left laterotrusion recording block between the dentition of teeth of the upper and lower jaws. Turn the right hinge box insert 8 until the ball joint 6 and insert 7 touch and then secure with clamp. 8 Close the centric locks and place the articulator in its working position. 8

31 A 7. Setting the immediate Side Shift (ISS) (für PROTAR B, 7, 9) The immediate side shift (ISS) of the mediotrusion condyle can be preselected from 0 to. mm (in 0. mm steps). The fixing screw of the Bennett angle guides must be slackened by about / of a turn to make the adjustment. Set the adjustment to the value required on the adjustment mark of the immediate side shift (ISS). Retighten the fixing screw. The Bennett angle selected is retained. 9

32 A 7. Adjusting the Shift-angle If PROTAR 7 is equipped with the shift angle inserts (0.6.), movements on the working side (Laterotrusion side) can be exactly Slacken knurled screw so that the shiftangle insert can be adjusted by turning the pin. With the left lateral registration, the right Bennet angle and the left shift angle can be adjusted simultaneously. With the right lateral registration, the left Bennet angle and the right shift angle can be adjusted To adjust, turn the shift angle insert so far until it makes contact with the joint ball. 0

33 A 7. Setting of a protrusion / distraction position PROTARevo 9 The PROTARevo 9 is constructed in the same way as the PROTARevo 7. Supplementary the PROTARevo 9 has a P/D/R-insert. Mat. No right / left Defined Protrusion setting Defined Distraction setting Defined Retrusion setting The PROTARevo 7 can be retrofitted with P/D/R-insert. Setting a guided protrusion from 0 to mm in 0, mm steps from to 6 mm in 0, mm steps These settings are specifically guided and reproducible. The upper section stops in each protrusion setting. Examples of uses: Protrusion guides Grinding in the occlusion Setting a guided distraction from 0 to mm in 0, mm steps from to 6 mm in 0, mm steps from the centric position These settings are specifically guided and reproducible. The upper section stops in each distraction setting. The support pin can be readjusted accordingly. Example of use: Bite plate guides.

34 A 7.6 Setting the retrusion To produce retrusive free spaces when waxing, a retrusive movement is possible in PROTARevo 7/9. This reduces grinding-in work on the part of the dentist. Retrusive free spaces have already been provided in the modelling. Zero position of the When the lateral movement (ISS) is set to. mm, the retrusive movement can be increased to.0 mm (in step of 0, mm). In this case, no exactly centric position is possible with centric locks closed!

35 A 7.7 Producing an individual incisal guidance The user can shape an individual incisal guidance from the flat PROTAR incisal plate. Set the articulator centric lock to position and fold open the articulator towards the rear. Apply a release agent (petroleum jelly) to the incisal plate and the tip of the support pin. Fill the incisal plate with a doughy, stirred autopolymer so that it comes flush with the edge. By using models before the preparation, the front incisal guidance can be transferred to the still doughy autopolymer by movements in the articulator with the support pin. Release the individual tray from the incisal plate by levering it out with a suitable instrument in the opening in the incisal plate. The individual incisal guidance can be reinserted, since the retention slot allows the correct position to be found accurately.

36 A 7.8 Programming the adjustable incisal plate A 7.8. By use of a situation model Before cutting the teeth, a situation model from the patient is produced. The adjustable incisal plate is then programmed with this situation model. For correct installation of the incisal plate, the middle guidance is set to a value of approx. 70. R The incisal plate is then moved until contact with the ball of the incisal plate is reached, and then is fixed with the locking screw. L M Move the lower jaw in the articulator to the left and set the left guidance,. Then move the lower jaw to the right and set the right guidance. The middle guidance can be set by moving the model along the anterior teeth. Thus, the adjustable incisal plate records the tooth guidance. A 7.8.

40 A 0. D Setup aid for lower jaw models according to the APF method Receptacle Template holder Long template Mat. No Short template Mat. No Positioning screw This template system can be applied generally no matter which aspects have governed mounting of the model in the articulator (face bow or jig for averagevalue articulator). With this template system, the user is provided with a flat surface providing the reference to the occlusal plane, and a convex surface, which takes into account the compensation curves in both the saggittal and transversal directions with respect to the static position of the mandible. The template can be universally adjusted with the aid of the template holder and the receptacle. The template can be aligned in every case whether with face bow, articulator jig or rubber band. By pressing the receptacle together, the complete unit is fixed between the balljoints of the articulator. 8

41 For alignment, the template is placed on the wax rim. To achieve this, the wax rim must be occlusally modified so that the template is aligned in the areas of the incisors and the lower molars. The flat surface of the template can be used, for example, for the Gerber method. The position of the template is determined by the positioning screw, which is fixed to the model through the template. The wax rim can now be somewhat retracted for setting up. A small drop of sticky wax will hold the positioning screw. The lower jaw can now be set up against the template. After removing the template holder, the articulator is once again complete. 9

42 A 0. D Setup template for upper jaw model (Mat. No ) This flat setup aid for the edentulous upper jaw model is aligned by the upper wax rim. To achieve this, the setup aid is held against the upper wax rim by a rubber band. The setup aid is then individually fixed in the lower section of the articulator by a small amount of plaster. 0

43 A 0. D Setup aid for the upper jaw (Mat. No..00.9) This accessory is both a plastering and a setup aid for the edentulous upper jaw. After retracting the papilla screw and pushing back the setdown slider, settting up of the upper jaw model can now begin. A 0. D Setup aid for the upper model for screw mounting (Mat. No..00.9)

44 A Milling table with transfer plate Split system For dental laboratory work required milling operations, it is often necessary to transfer the model alternately between articulator and milling machine. Magnet control bases lever The magnetic force provides secure holding of the work also during milling operations. The edge-to-edge fit of the split cast system based on the articulator mounting plates guarantees precise holding of the work. The model is set just once for the milling work and can then be rotated as often as required without the need for further adjustment.

45 Occlusal features can be constructed in the articulator. The necessary milling work can be carried out at any time. By accurate fit of the transfer between articulator and milling machine, all work stages can be continuously controlled.
